Abstract

The present text examines Schopenhauer's definition of madness of love in order, based on the literary example of Shakespeare's character Ophelia in Hamlet given by the Boddhishatva of Frankfurt, to make a connection with the madness of Machado de Assis’s character Rubião in novel Quincas Borba.
